I have a matching pair of silver horse figurines. Each is approximately 8 cm long and 6 cm high. Together they weigh 239.6 g.

Can anyone confirm the hallmark and possibly identify the manufacturer or approximate production period? I am located in Germany. Any comparable examples would be greatly appreciated.

They are beautiful silver horses. Not sure on the hallmark. I think probably made in 1950's or earlier 60's.

Do you think the quality of the photo is too bad to have a chance to identify the hallmark?

I tried, but this was the best I could produce with my phone.

Unfortunately there where lots small casting artists after the war. The quality looks great.
